Gulkand (also written gulqand or gulkhand) is a sweet preserve of rose petals believed to come from India. The term is derived from Persian; gul (rose) and qand (sugar/sweet).[1][2]

Traditionally, gulkand has been prepared with Damask roses.[3] Other common types of roses used include China rose, French rose, and Cabbage rose.[3] It is prepared using special pink rose petals and is mixed with sugar. Rose petals are slow-cooked with sugar, which reduces the juices into a thick consistency.[4]
Uses in holistic medicine[edit | edit source]
Gulkand is used in the Unani system of medicine as a cooling tonic.[5] It is also used in Ayurvedic and Persian medicine to help with bodily imbalances.[6]
